I may be able to snag it if Dan cannot. If it can be picked up this weekend or next. Depends on how Hurricane Mathew tracks,reminds me of the track Hugo took.

I replaced the air governer on the M62A1,it was getting slow to build air. I also swapped hard tops on the M51A1 dump Saturday,as well as replaced both wiper motors and the drivers door glass.

Good looking 151 there Larry,maybe one of these days I'll actually finish mine. Excellent work Dave,Hopefully I'll get to see it in person at GA in a couple weeks.

I may have to sit this one out as well,unless I need to deliver a trailer or truck to the Rally,trying to get an outside business venture off the ground,which is taking all of my excess spending cabbage right now.

Well folks,the new owner of this truck picked it up this morning and is headed back to Va,actually as of this posting he is probably home. I think someone spotted him near ridgecrest NC this morning.

Nope,another item mine is missing.

That is one thing I have noted with these trailers,I actually believe the factory ramps are HEAVIER than the stock ramps that came with the M172A1 lowboy trailers. Mine does not have the assist springs as of yet(still on order) and I cannot lift the ramps to vertical without the assistance of...

I have seen and owned 2 Multifuel powered 5 tons that were equipped with 6453 OD transmissions,both would run 73 mph at governed speed of 2900 rpm with stock 1100 X 20s. I believe both of them were Depot rebuilds, those may have been the only transmissions available through the parts system at...

Yes,I guess I could bring the multi colored M51A1 dump and the trailer.

Sold my M54A1C today,it will be going home to it's new owner next Saturday.

Well,being as I have not replied to this thread yet,I may make the trip down again this year,being that my supply of MVs is quickly dwindling not sure what I will drive yet. Either the M62A1 wrecker with the M322 in tow with my usual complement of everything but the kitchen sink or the M51A1...

I used my M51A1 dump to haul stumps that I dug out with the Caterpillar 941B loader I purchased Saturday(9-6-16). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvXCQi49MP4

It's possible I could bring a M54A1 and M322 trailer,not 100% sure yet.

Looks like an early truck too,1 piece brush guard.

Well, Once again I won't be making it up to the rally, I hope everyone has a safe and fun time, as always,maybe next year.

Ok, having owned 4 of these over a short time(one I never got home,I sold it before I ever moved it!) I am gonna offer my 2 cents here. I will never own another M123 10 ton unless the following criteria are met: #1 It is fully restored,with a clear title, and the rear brake cans replaced with...

Mine has the JOST jack with the internal gearbox.

Go to your local heavy truck/trailer parts house,it's pretty much an off the shelf part,there are 2 different lengths though. I got mine from Fleetpride for about $20.

Mine has JOST mfg corp jacks,I believe they are model # A400 with the drop foot option,I still need to confirm this with Terex/Load King soon. The rear ramp assist springs are designed to slip over a 2 inch diameter shaft and are 3/4 inch diameter material. BTW,for anyone missing the steel...

Ok, I'm gonna throw my 2 cents in here, Having owned,driven,and worked both over long and short distances,hands down the Mack kicks the 250s posterior in every way but 1,top speed. The 800 series trucks will manage 56 mph,the M39s with the Mack will top out at 52,I cannot explain why,same gear...
